Stoneman Frederic G. Telmos Philip M. Wagner his haste-driven convenience, is now thwarted by great gaping areas which' his strident energy can't abridge; and he no longer clamors for convenient highways, direct from his here to his there, but with humbled spirit is con- tent to walk around, and by some improvised narrow passageway to sling into a mocking rear entrance. His former bee-line path has become a kind of delirious concentric curve,, with occasional features along the way which suggest a thoughtfully plan- ned course for an obstacle race. What would he not give now for a mod-I est little forty-five degree angle to walk leisurely and respectfully around? And though once he peti- tioned the gods for wider walks, to circumvent the social proclivities of the co-ed, what would he not give now! for a demure eight-foot istraight-away, however peopled, if only unobstructed by detour bars and unmenaced by lurching motor trucks?! Either the aesthete or the untilitar- ian would welcome now, by prefer- ence, the remote days when the side- walks were mere gravelled strips, with a pair of boardwalk inlays to ac- commodate single-file traffic in each direction -- devices which certainly were not adornment,3 to the campus,! however much of the cherished plot I they left undisturbed in its native beauty-or barrenness. Looking to the future, it is a ques- tion which of the two contestants Ali finally come' into his own. If recent student growths ratios are maintain-I ed, the campus traffic problem will) become acute in a fairly short time,l and not only a hetwork of broad side- walks, but double-deck viaducts, even overhead bridges between skyscraper buildings, underground arcades for automobiles, and elaborate aerial sta- tions, nay ke expected in time to complicate the =beauty-lover'.s view. Probably the old sidewalk conten- tion will presently be resumed, and will go on, as before, seemingly with- out end. Meanwhile, however, .there is a notable recess in the familiar con- troversy-a lull in which the old an- tagonists are for the time made com- panions in misery. A wistful longing for the comparative paradise of old- en days almost makes' them sympa- thetic friends. No fear of future in- convenience or aesthetic pain pene- trates the present gloom.

With it ar- rive thoughts of the future, and usu- ally regrets for the past. Mistakes made will not recur; energies unused will be applied; and time wasted will, be a thing bygone; diligence will mark the road ahead. These, and other equally haloed in,-' tentions inspire the student to start out anew, to.make his college life worth while,-or more worth while. Then comes the new semester A pound of notebook filler and freshly sharpened pencils escort the student to his classes. His professor lectures. He listens intently; writes furiously; absorbs splendidly. At night he stud-j ies conscientiously; sits in quizz ex- ultantly; knows his assignment thor- oughly. - But as the pencils wear down, soj does his epthusiasm; and the end of the semester finds him again with thoughts of the future, and again withI It h V t . a t You Will Learn ore Rapidly In a Few PRIVATE LESSONS HALSEY'S DANCE SfUi1DlQS SLEEP ANYWHERE, BJuT EAT AT RLX'S THE CLUB LUNCH j712 Arbor Street' J Near Sltt and Packard Streets' Try Our Business Men's Le - 11:80-2:00 -- -65c JOE PARKER'S SPECI1L S1TND4Y DhiN1ER K"edy's Orchestra' ' 1:30 - 4:00 Cornwell Coal Bldg.
